Re: AO-51 V/U SSB/FM mode

Hi Alan,
Gould and I (mostly Gould!) worked on the audio settings last night to tweak
them. These settings will work as long as folks keep their uplink power
under control and reasonable. Too much power and the downlink will become
distorted. QRP does fine most of the time.
Glad you enjoyed the mode.
